Mohamed Elshawaf (mshwf) | 9 comments I wanna add a pdf file for a book (ebook), but I can't find the "upload an e-book" btn in the book editing page (as explained in the help topic)

Empress (the_empress) Are you the author?

Uploading ebooks is now limited to the author of a work and Goodreads employees.

Mohamed Elshawaf (mshwf) | 9 comments Yes I'm the author, but I made the author profile (not goodreads author) to separate it from my profile as a reader

Empress (the_empress) Maybe you can ask someone who is staff, like Rivka, or create another account and connect it with the authors profile so you can upload it, as currently librarians are not allowed to do that.

Claiming an author profile will not replace your reader profile, but add to it.

If you still want to keep your profiles separate, I suggest creating a second reader account with which to claim your author page - that way you will have control over both aspects (though you will have to log out and in to switch between them).
